Environmental modelling is based on the transport of substances in surface and ground water using the so-called advection-diffusion equation.

The water quality module D-Water Quality of the Delft3D Flexible Mesh Suite is based on this equation and it offers different computational methods to solve it numerically on an arbitrary irregular shaped grid, on a grid of rectangles, triangles or curvilinear computational elements. The sediment transport module of D-Water Quality can be applied to model the transport of cohesive and non-cohesive sediments, i.e. to study the spreading of dredged materials, to study sedimentation/erosion patterns and to carry out water quality and ecology studies where sediment is the dominant factor. It is in fact a sub-module of the water quality module. The ecology transport module D-Water Quality distributes the available resources (nutrients and light) in an optimal way among the different types of algae. It is in fact a sub-module of the water quality module.

This 3-day course will give you an introduction into setting up and running a water quality, an ecological, particle tracking as well as oil disposal simulations.

The Delft3D Flexible Mesh Suite (Delft3D FM) is the successor of the structured Delft3D 4 Suite. The Delft3D FM Suite can simulate storm surges, typhoons / hurricanes, tsunamis, detailed flows and water levels, waves, sediment transport and morphology, water quality and ecology and is capable of handling the interactions between these processes.

This 2-day course will give you an introduction into grid generation for flexible grids, on bathymetry interpolation, in setting up hydrodynamic models and running them, and on postprocessing.
